Sun catcher

L'Isle sur la SorgueGreetings from summer in the south of France! A deep blue sky is what we regularly get here in August. And the big news is - I'm taking you on holidays! Not very far mind you, we'll be spending a week in the countryside and small villages around Avignon. Today we're in l'Isle sur la Sorgue, a lovely little town renown for its antiques market and this is where I spotted this lovely lantern. Can you find it also in the photo below?

Oh Nathalie, you and I do love shadows don't we!! I have an over the top one today and yours is so subtle and delicate. Just perfect. I'm flying home today (I hope, been on standby for 2 days with no luggage!) I will return to France, soon I hope. Maybe we'll meet in person one day. I am looking forward to holidaying in France with you on your blog this week.V

After six years in Australia and five years of city life in Avignon I moved to the countryside near the small village of Beaumes-de-Venise. Once dedicated to street photography my blog has since taken a more rural note but the beautiful region of Provence is an constant source of inspiration.
